I'm having a time with #34. I'm looking at the solution, but every time I get close to finishing, time runs out
Took a long break and came back. Since I had done it so many times, I memorized most of the pipe positions. After about 5 or 6 more attempts I finally cleared it. Now I've done all 36! On to the next room and then facility 5!

I actually muscled my way through this one except for the last few. I must have attempted one of those at least a dozen times because of my friggen mouse locking up. I did have a lot of fun with this though. Having 36 levels was absolutely maddening!

It was an interesting game. Thankfully all puzzles cleared and I don't have to do that again.
The water pressure/ timer thing was a little stressful. Makes me wonder about what's waiting in facility 5. I was terrible at Pipe Mania and found myself thinking of it.

I think after they figure out how to save humanity, they need to find someone who knows how to install proper plumbing. Some of these make NO sense.
The last level of this puzzle is by far the most infuriating thing I've ever encountered.
I got through it without too much trouble, but I sort of cheated. I took a screenshot of the puzzle and sketched a blank copy of the hex grid on a sheet of paper. Then I used the screenshot to study the way the pipes were laid out and slowly worked out the solution on the paper grid by process of elimination. ("Okay, the pipes in this hex will only work if they're laid out this way, so that means the hex below it has to look like that...")
It was so much nicer being able to figure it out at my own pace instead of racing the clock and constantly losing my progress. Even when I was trying to answer the puzzle, though, I still ran out of time once or twice between rotating most of the pipes and double-checking my work, so I'm halfway convinced that you pretty much have to do something similar if you want to have a fair chance at solving it.
